Hi, what are the actual dimensions of the bulb? I have an IR lamp used in a spa, and I ordered a bulb of similar description but it was too big.

Hi Greg, From tip to bottom, it's 6 inches, widest part at bottom is 4-1/2 inches. Fits into a standard floodlight socket. Hope that helps.

Oh, I'm sorry but I don't have a used bulb. I currently have one in my office lamp but I would have to remove it (a hassle in this particular lamp). If it helps, the box it came in is 8" long exactly and there wasn't much "wiggle room" for the bulb. Hope this helps a little.

The dimensions of the bulb are similar to a long neck incandescent. In fact, I had to adjust my fixture to about the limit in terms of length. I do like this bulb. The light color, focus and intensity are excellent. I am thinking of getting more.

Hi - I ordered this a few weeks ago to plug into a brand new outdoor light fixture I purchased at Lowes, so I could insert a regular incandescent 25 watt lightbulb, and that size sounds about right. I can go home and measure it tonight and get back with you. Karen

not sure what you mean by too large. It fits a standard screw socket and I'm not sure which unit you're trying to put it into, but if you don't have a standard socket it surely won't fit. I'm not sure which bulb will fit your unit. Sorry. You may want to do a search for a replacement bulb for that specific model.

The dimensions are wrong. The item is as shown in the picture. My is installed in a difficult to access location so I can't measure it, but it adds about 1.5" to the bulb.

I bought this bulb a long time ago. It did not fit into the lamp, in spite of the website information. So I got rid of the lamp and bought another, different, one.

I don't recall the size, but you can locate it on the Exoterra site. I returned mine because none of the local stores carried that size bulb. I purchased two 18" instead; bulbs are readily available at pet stores.

I have an 'antique' beer sign, with the original bulb (# FC 12T 10 CW). After talking to 4 or 5 different electrical & bulb companies, they all gave me FC 12T9 CW as the replacement. 12" O.D. & 9.5" I.D. actual bulb roughly 1 1/4" wide. 4-pin base. They were all correct. This bulb DID fit. (Amazon the cheapest/fastest service of all too) oh yeah, 32W. I hope this helps. Ellen

I just received my order. The body of the bulb is about .85" long and the G4 base "legs" are just over .30" making the total length 1.18". The diameter of the body of the bulb is .47".

this did not fit as a replacement for our subzero - checked all the lights in the fridge & the freezer & did not fit any. the bulb (without including the screw-in part) is 4 1/2 inches long & 2 1/2 inches diameter.

When I stopped at our house (in construction) the lights were on and hot so I couldn't take it out. However, I measured the glass portion itself and it seemed to be 4" so I'm not quite sure how long the base of the bulb is. I hope that helps!

If this is the bulb I purchased and returned, it was a bare bulb only. I needed a bulb for a BP96-00224F which is about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. The unit sent was smaller ...as I recall maybe 2 1/2 inches. I kinda thought it was made more for an office projector type of DLP unit due to it's size as I remember. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, I haven't got a bulb within reach to measure, I can tell you, with reasonable certainty, that it's about 6" long. It most certainly can be installed either way (horizontally or vertically). It's just a regular incandescent bulb except for the color (which is really beautiful, by the way). I use these bulbs frequently (I am an interior designer) as well as the "radio tube" shape in the same color.

It's the same size as the bulb that was in there but I would warn you not to purchase it. It's a lot of money to not have it work. And have no success of replacement.

Reviews are saying the bulbs are large. Does anyone know the dimensions? The total length, the bulb length and the width at the widest point? Thanks

It is a large mercury vapor bulb. Mine is a Sylvania Mercury 175 W, H39KC-175/DX/RP. It is about 6 inches long. Hope this is helpful.
